Plain Yogurt

I saw a bubzbeauty video of her doing this sort of thing, and so I wanted to try it out. Let me just say, THIS REALLY WORKS. I have acne on my forehead, right/left of my eyebrows, my cheeks, and my chin. And let me just say that this really cleared up my skin. In about a week of using this, i noticed my skin was REALLY SOFT!! And alot clearer as well. Anyways, I recommend this to people with acne. Good Luck!!! :D

I've been using Dannon's plain yogurt (use only plain!!) for about a month. My acne had already gone down thanks to Dan's BP (discontinued due to the fact that BP is bad for your organs..etc) but my face was still full of acne. Using this daily has gotten rid of about 95% of it and my red/dark marks are so much lighter it's unbelievable. Before I normally had about 30 pimples on my face, right now I have 3. :D <3 [I have used it in conjunction with emu oil at night and washing my face w/ likas papaya soap; I also do many home remedies during the week. such as an ice facial(google it and look at michelle phan's video on youtube.] So just try it, it's not gonna break you out and you have nothing to loose. Good luck :)

I usually wash my face first with non-scented anti-bacterial soap first. IT IS A MUST TO WASH FACE FIRST! I then take a CLEAN foundation brush that I ONLY USE FOR YOGURT!!! Then apply a thin or thick (depending on how bad my face is that day) and leave it on for about 20-30 min. Rinse off yogurt with luke warm or cold water (remember, hot water dries skin which causes more zits) After all yogurt is off my face I apply a TINY (not even a dime size) of moisturizer; this helps keep your face from drying out (my face dries up when it gets wet) Try using it nightly (or 3 to 4 times a week) within 6 months you will see a significant difference. This will help with reducing redness, scars, and zits. EXTRA YOGURT USAGE!!!! You can use yogurt in your hair too!!!! Just mix a little bit of yogurt, egg whites, and olive oil together! Put the mix in hair and leave in for an hour. This mask will help grow and repair your hair. Just wash out with mild shampoo and I suggest a leave in conditioner after to keep it soft.

(Goes good with a sugar hand scrub to complete the 'spa' treatment-- sugar + a little extra virgin olive oil.) I only tried this once with some family and I guess I was not too impressed with the results. We used plain yogurt and applied it in light circles to the face and left it on until it dried. Some things to keep in mind: 1.) When the "mask" is dry, do not scrunch up your face. It might be hard if you think about it or someone cracks a funny joke so try and find a calm and soothing area to do this in. 2.) Depending on your region, the price could be an issue. Look for plain yogurt and, if possible, organic or something along those lines. It might be a little above the average price. It is all up to the user. 3.) I cannot speak from constant use but this seems more of a cosmetic remedy than an acne helper in the long run. The supple and soft skin can reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Overall, you can go and try it more than I did and see results for yourself.

This is great for redness, applying a yogurt mask every morning and evening made my severe sunburn completely disappear from my face in 3 days! Then I noticed that my zits looked a lot less red and prominent! ------------------------------------- This is how I use a simple yet effective yogurt mask: 1) Wait about ten minutes after cleansing your face. 2) Supply yourself with plain, full fat, organic/natural yogurt of any brand. Take it fresh out of the fridge, so that it cools your skin when applying. 3) Scoop the yogurt out with clean fingers and apply to dry face. Stop when you have a thick, gooey mask. (Evenly coated, or concentrated on red/problem areas.) 4) Leave on face for 20-25 minutes. 5) Gently RINSE off all the yogurt with lukewarm water. 6) Do not put any additional products on the face after rinsing. ------------------------------------- Continue with this routine morning and night and you should see results within a couple days! This is especially amazing if you have a bad, embarrassing-looking sunburn or red patches!

My skin was rough; it was dry and oily, i had a bunch of clogged pores, my cheeks and forehead were always itchy and red, and pimples kept disappearing then coming back. Then i used plain yogurt. Holy crap. When i first tried it and washed it off, my ski nhad never been softer (it was always dry). Within a week those bumpy pores had been refined (very small now). My skin is so smooth. Not only that, but the redness has disappeared and my clogged pores are virtually gone. DONT USE ANYTHING EXCEPT YOGURT. i left my moisturizer, and as soon as i did,my clogged pores disappeared within 5 days. I left my cleanser too,and my irritated skin disappeared. I have a few pimples still after 2 weeks of yogurt, and thats normal with my teenage years,but its not even close to severe (all over my face) like it used to be. Its just like a small pimple here and there, which i use a gentle spot treatment for, but my skin tone has improved so much in a week. So smooth.

My acne started when i was 17 years old. Before that i'd get the odd pimple but i started getting cystic pimples. One or two at a time but i'd pop them and end up they'd turn into open wounds. My doctor put me on Diane-35 and gave me differin gel. The diane took a while to clear my skin up but i still get the odd cystic pimple and the yogurt mask really helps. How I make it: I take about a tablespoon of PLAIN low fat yogurt and put it in a bowl, then i add a few drops of tea tree oil (don't add too much if you have sensitive skin) and about a tablespoon of virgin coconut oil (not necessary if you have oil skin but i have very dry skin) Then I mix it all up and apply a thin layer all over my face. I add a thick layer on problem areas (cystic pimples) and leave it there for about an hour or so... This really helps with redness and inflammation and if used consistently will help you acne! Give it a try

Great mask once a day. Wow. I hope you can share the delight of a yogurt mask with me

after applying yogurt as a mask 2x a day, my skin is better than it's been in years. A couple months ago, I started to get hormonal breakouts, and my dermatologist insisted on prescribing antibiotics. The antibiotics just made my breakouts worse, and I started to get cystic acne, around 5 new lesions a day. Frustrated, I tried applying yogurt to my face as a last resort. Literally, in one week, all of the active acne has gone down, and my skin is smooth, with no bumps forming underneath the surface. It really does work! I only use plain, organic yogurt, with live active cultures...

i'm gonna tell you now, i got some BAD acne! you can go to the link below (if it works) or go to my personal regimen logs to see my face. [link edited out] i got the idea of plain yogurt from bubzbeauty on youtube. it was a natural product that she swore by and she has some nice skin and her suggestions have never steered me wrong before. anyway i picked up some plain stop and shop yogurt since it was cheaper than dannon and gave it a go. basically i take a spoonful of yogurt and take my mini blush brush that i bought (though i don't wear makeup so i figure hey might as well use this set for something lol) dip it in the yogurt on the spoon and spread it all over my face. i leave it for 20 -30 minutes and wash with cold water. i do this mask after i have cleaned my face really well. oh my word! it moisturizes my skin, reduces redness and after using it at night my pimples reduced greatly!! the best natural remedy ever (well besides lemon cuz that is good too) this morning i decided to put some lemon on my face, let it dry then add the yogurt mask. (using lemon to help my hyperpigmentation) and i am touching my face now and ahhhh it feels like it has drunk loads of water!!! don't even have to put moisturizer (unless i'm going outside then eucerin spf 30) overall excellent product. it's cheap and huge so it should last you about 2 months. wish it didn't ever expire tho.
